No True Victories on 9/11
It is tough to imagine that the beaten-down software and indeed many growth titles will immediately snapback to new highs in a single session or two, and perhaps not even before the FOMC one week from today. Having said that, with one of the more prominent growth security/software plays Zscaler (ZS) collapsing 25% this morning after earnings,...

A Tale of Two Pullbacks
Another session of glaring weakness in the Nasdaq, combined with abrupt, heavy bouts of selling in winning consumer discretionary stocks (e.g. CMG SHAK WING) likely outweighs any progress made by both small caps and lagging sectors beginning to show signs of life. Moreover, the morning bounce attempts in suddenly-oversold software growth...

Kosmos Drinking Some Milkshakes
Despite crude oil's bounce over the last few sessions, it remains tough to find strong energy charts which withstood the barrage of that sector's bear market (for all intents and purposes) since October 2018.

Eyes Wide Shut Market
Glaring relative weakness in the software space and indeed many growth stocks again this morning continues to throw cold water on any noted technical progress the major averages appear to be making.

Sunday Matinée at Market Chess Cinemas
Currently available on Amazon Prime here , Operation Finale (2018) is a very fine film which is certainly worthy of a viewing, regardless of your knowledge of the real-life events the film portrays. The acting is strong across the board, with well-known actors like Ben Kingsley still in top form, while lesser-known actors like Oscar Isaac...

A Lonely Place for Bears
One of the more interesting aspects about the way the current market is constructed is that despite some notable bearish signs, such as the small and micro-cap ETFs spending most of their summers below a declining 200-day moving average (typically a rather serious technical predicament), other parts of the market have proved to be remarkably...

Here Comes That Knock Again...
Despite an ugly post-earnings move lower in software growth play MDB, which seems to be upsetting some of the upside momentum software enjoyed yesterday, the China trade talks optimism combined with some upbeat macro data is sending the major averages much higher this morning. Both QQQ and SPY are breaking their respective ranges higher to...
